What were your symptoms if you don't mind me asking?

Hi Charles80

It depends before I was diagnosed with lupus I was just extremely run down, really tired, fatigue and had no energy to do anything. I would wake up most night suffering from night sweats, heart palpitations. I still have all this but its ten times more worse with lupus.

sorry for not being very positive

I had Graves Disease and now take thyroxine after having radio-iodine to bring my thyroid back under control.
